This is the top of the cycle for CNF and its ilk.
Same goes for Maytag. So do you buy cyclicals at 9 times peak earnings? Or do you wait for 4000 times trough earnings or N/A. Rather, how about Clayton Homes, which trades at 9X earnings and just announced in its conference call this past week that these might be trough earnings? I know CNF well, and of course the idea of investing in it or Maytag + Hoover just sounds right to a value investor in a tech-manic world. But it may not be profitable, IMO. Or at least not as profitable as investing in them at another time in the cycle.

Good investing,
Mike
